Just trying out Telstra NextG and seeing if it resolves some of the problems I had with Three (e.g. high network charges when roaming on to Telstra). On of the first observations is that the website seems to be incompatible with Firefox, Chromium, and Android browser; in all three environments clicking the next button does nothing: https://www.my.telstra.com.au/myaccount/register Wish I could say I was surprised, but then my nose would start growing :-) Are there any workarounds? Besides get IE on a Windows box, which I assume should work? Then again, looking at the HTML, not sure how this should work under IE either, so maybe classing this as a Linux accessibility issue might be wrong? Unless there is some JavaScript that is suppose to alter this HTML to something that works. <a class="btn_blue submit" href="javascript:void(0)">Next ></a> Thanks -- Brian May <brian@microcomaustralia.com.au>

Oh wait, looks like the same breakage occurs with IE, which means this is off-topic here; never mind... -- Brian May <brian@microcomaustralia.com.au>

FWIW... Under Firefox 10.0.2 under Win7 x64, the Next button tells me I have a bunch of fields I haven't filled in.. On my Samsung Galaxy S II (chome? I can't tell) I get the same - red text next to all the fields, which I assume indicates that the button is executing the javascript as it should. Have you disabled javascript or something like that?

Hmm. Now it works from Firefox (after clearing cache and cookies for today) and Android. Chromium (Ubuntu 11.10) still broken. Will investigate more tomorrow. No, haven't turned JavaScript off. -- Brian May <brian@microcomaustralia.com.au>

Now Chromium seems to work. Fast too. Did notice I was getting random time out errors before, maybe that is related... The JavaScript may have timed out instead of downloading. -- Brian May <brian@microcomaustralia.com.au>

Do you happen to know what the server is running? Let me guess: it probably isn't Nginx or Apache - possibly Sun Java Web server or something from Redmond, Washington. It wouldn't surprise me at all to discover that Linux is used in Telstra, but probably not on the Web server. I read an announcement last week that their e-mail service for broadband customers was migrating to a cluster hosted by Microsoft.

http://uptime.netcraft.com/up/graph?site=www.my.telstra.com.au indicates that it is "BigIP" running on "F5 Big-IP", though back on a different IP address in August last year it did identify itself as "Sun-Java-System-Web-Server/7.0", which is probably the true identity of the system behind the F5 load balancer. cheers, Chris -- Chris Samuel : http://www.csamuel.org/ : Melbourne, VIC This email may come with a PGP signature as a file.
